GOLF SWING BASICS - How to Strike Your Irons with Danny Maude

This video is a god-send! Thank you Danny!! Greatly appreciated!

just a little chip here ... 150 yards straight down the fairway.

Thank for the reminder Danny!

Danny, do your clients every report that practice swings (without a ball) are superior and more fluid than those executed with a target ball placed on the driving surface? Thanks.

Great video Danny, what irons are you using? I’m a senior with great flexibility and my iron play isn’t too good at all with my mid irons and up, short irons are good. I would love to be able to use a player’s iron, Apex or something similar.

Your broad spectrum of exercises and emphasis of swing foundations are converging for me and my swing is progressing. Thanks.

Thank you

Danny, really enjoy your videos. Unfortunately, once I applied this tip all the sudden my left knee has started giving me issues. I'm a right handed golfer and I"m trying to twist and release, but now I'm in pain and am compensating for the pain. Suggestions.

Great tip....

thanks Danny....Been compressing the ball better than ever...thanks mostly to you!!!

Your way of explaining things is brilliant!

Great info on your channel all around. Keep up the great work Danny

Great videos and tips! Easy stuff to digest cause it’s not too long like other. I gotta question and hoping you could help. I have tennis elbow and it hurts. I just love to play and against doctors orders I can’t rest the elbow long enough for this to heal. Lately, I’ve been noticing that I’m hooking my shots cause I’m anticipating a painful impact. Aside from aiming right, are there any swing tips for this? Thanks.

Danny did you just call me a hooker!? Cheers mate!

Sorry Dan, my swing is so bad I can’t even get past the first step

Thank you for the video. Thank you.

Your videos have helped me so much, thank you! The other tip that helped me the most was actually from John Daly on a Golf show. He said keeping your lead shoulder pointing to the ground at impact was the most important part of the swing. I'm wondering, do you agree with Daly's sentiment on shoulder control at impact?

Good lesson, Danny. Really helped to understand the concepts of winding up and letting the club head do the work. Good practice session using the guide. Now to take it to the course!

Thank you!

One of the best golf instructional vids I've seen thus far!! Thanks

Love it - and badly needed! Thanks Danny ❤

hi danny dunno if u can help I'm really struggling with keeping my arms straight after impact I have shaft lean at impact and when my arms straighten out say a foot past the ball the weight and momentum of the club head is that strong that it comes around Kinda to quickly folding my trail arm it's like the pendulum motion is to quick and I cant catch the club keeping everything in line until I should be bending it. any thoughts i can kind of keep them straight like when chipping but as soon as i power anything club come around to quick

I wish I watched this last Sunday 😭

Hey Danny! watched all your vids to help my wild slice (letfy here), I finally got to the driving range to put what you've taught me to the test and I'm very excited to report that you've greatly helped straighten out my slice.. balls are going much straighter, still slicing 10% of them, but i'll take it ..Hopefully with a bit more practice, i'll rid that slice for good! Thank you so much.

What do you click on to find the practice drills? I can't find it. Thanks.

Great drill for those who have limited flexibility for sure (like me, age 62). This drill affirms the area I have been working of late - to get the core "wound" up to be able to fire. I know you did not say it, but when you get the spring wound, the end result is the "effortless" swing that all desire to have. Also love how you effectively recap the drill to reinforce what is being taught.

Does this work for driver Danny. Cause I just been up the range with my irons and it's amazing. But I'm scared to try something different with my driver cause I'm hitting it ok

Danny as always a great video. This has come
At a great point in my game. 2 weeks ago I was playing some decent golf with good scores. The last few rounds for no reason at all I have topped the ball and spooned it off to the right!!! With no idea what I’m doing different 🤷‍♂️
Just one question. You mention with the club across the body the angle created on the backswing, Is there an ideal angle you aim for on your follow through to the target 🎯? Or is it simply a byproduct from the backswing. Thanks again Danny. Time for some range time ⛳️🏌️‍♂️💥👍

Hold that beach ball down….

I love the video!

How on Earth did you know, that This is where I am right now. 🤣
Thank you for the ideas.

Thanks Danny - as always you keep it simple and easy to understand. Keep it fluid but centred, allow the body to work! Thank you 🏌️‍♂️

Very good tips Danny 👍 I have a problem with gripping the club far too tight! How can I break the habit? Thanks

Thanks Danny good tip thanks for all you do

Great drill! Can't wait to try it out. Always had trouble turning up properly.

I sure do hope this works for me . . . been suddenly struggling and having all sorts of trouble making solid strikes. Thanks for posting something that actually makes sense. Would you recommend the same sort of steps for the driver as well? Cheers from NY!

Danny, so I quit my round yesterday at the 12th hole. I started off fine, hitting the ball pretty well, so really good shots. But then on the last three holes I just lost it. Started topping the ball, pulling it off into the woods on the right. Had no idea how to get back to "normal". So I saw this this yesterday morning and went to the range. I got my mid irons consistent and well struck. Hit the driver well but still going left or slicing. Anyway great lesson. Really like your approach. There is a cohesiveness to your lessons. They seem to flow together. I have looked at other sites and often the lessons seem to be completely isolated from any base.

good reminder Danny
one question
sometimes your left heel gets a little bit off the ground
sometimes not
i assume its for better/easier hip rotation
what's better?

Struggled the last couple times out. Reverted back to these basics that you describe so well. Back on track. Love your lessons and your ability to clearly explain the concepts that you teach. Keep em coming Danny !!

Excellent explanation you are the best 👌

Quite brilliant. This is the missing link for sure, changes my ungainly swing before I even try it out; thanks a lot

Nice video Dan. Could you make a video on how to whip the club on the release?. I think is the real missed link between a pro and the amateurs.

Danny’s understanding of body mechanics and ability to explain them is simply brilliant.

Another great video. Your explanations are so clear and concise. Thank You

Hi Danny some months ago you did a video with a tee peg in the end of your club for the takeaway could you do any type of video to follow on from the first video. Thank you. Steven Forster.

Great lesson Danny. Does this work the same with the driver?

A great 'back to basics' video, thanks.

Danny, this one made a ton of sense! I was turning side to side, not up! I'm new to golf (don't have a handicap yet, but got my GHIN number last week!) and I can't, for the life of me, 'brush the grass or mat, each time the club comes down. I can brush it 3 out of 10 times. Will totally miss the ball a bunch of the time, which is quite embarrassing on the course!
Any idea why that is?
